Interesting how the war cry has gone from "gay melanesians will unsafe on the streets" to "we gotta save our phoneybaloney jobs!"

Nothing can save the DC Swamp. It needs to be filled in and plowed over never to be resurrected again.

Unfortunately last time around Trump didn't drain the swamp he promoted the biggest swamp creatures and sat back and did nothing as they attacked those who stood by him. Several of those people who were loyal to him lost everything they owned defending themselves and many ended up in prison and Trump doubled his wealth while all this was going on. By their fruits ye shall know them .......... not by the promises they make whilst fully intending to break them ....... again.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Trumpism in a nutshell. Nick Fuentes is correct, it is going to have to get a lot worse before the American people finally wake up to what is going on.

You are not grasping what is going on while looking at the small view.

I am not voting Trump, I am voting Republican. I am not voting Washington Republicans.I will be voting the Free Sovereign Republican States.

After Decades watching from the sidelines,The State governments at the highest levels are getting into the battle.A battle to get back to Constitutional Government.

There is a reason why America is called the united STATES!

The states were what the Constitution was all about when it was finalized in 1792!

There was no Washington then & no Central Government.

The signers would have never signed if there was a Central Government involved.

Don't be deceived by the word 'state'.They were & are states in the European definition of states. They are Sovereign States like Germany or Poland are Sovereign States.

Not little administrative centers for Washington!

As such they have great powers.

The largest,Texas, has a population of 32 million & a GDP that puts it in an an economic tie with Brazil as the worlds 9th largest Economy!

And what's more,the Republican states are on the warpath & have had enough garbage from Washington!

Get used to "Lawfare," we are going to see a lot of it during the next four years of the Trump/Vance Administration.

Hey man, first of all I really enjoy your artwork.

My book is currently out of print for reasons I might discuss publicly at some point. I hope to get it republished in the not so distant future and I'll let you know when I do.

It isn't just in the US that vast numbers of people have non-jobs working for the government and those non-jobs actually consist of dreaming up more and more ways to prevent people with real jobs, i.e. every job outside of government or the military industrial complex, from doing those jobs.

"Some might say that makes me a bad person; it certainly, I will concede, makes me un-Christlike."

Not necessarily. These aren't your neighbors in the Biblical sense. They are explicitly your enemies in a religious war, a level of conflict most people don't understand as it is literally existential.

I do not subscribe to theological interpretations that have Jesus' comments about swords being only rhetorical and not literal, nor the relatively recent perversions of Christianity that preach only resolute inaction in the face of evil.

The money changers need to be cleaned out of the Temple once again, and we need Christian warriors to do so. There is no paradox to protecting against evil with violence if need be while praying for the souls of your enemies in my religion; this comports with the Nicene Creed, while most of what is preached in nominally Christian churches in the West does not.

Christ might agree with fighting them. I doubt he would agree with crucifying them.

So, you want a Chrisitan army? A Crusade? You think that Christ started his church to have an armed wing as the Mormons did? And almost all other "religions"?

The God I worship does not command me to stand by and watch evil be perpetrated on the innocent.

The exact limitations of what that means and what actions are justified or not is the essence of moral quandary inside Christianity for more than a thousand years. I cannot easily answer it, nor can any Christian. I only know what I will feel righteous for and sinful for when the day comes that I am called to account for my actions.

As a favorite author of mine wrote, "The tactically correct thing to do may not be the morally correct thing to do. May your luck and judgement keep you alive and able to live with yourself after." This man stacked a lot of bodies during his military career and has come to terms with it, I think we ignore his wisdom on this subject at our peril.

I agree that when the government becomes evil and rarely punishes the wrongdoer but is the wrongdoer things change and that government is not doing what God lets them exist for, their purpose.

But it gets old to hear Christians trying to macho-ize or militarize Christ's church. Telling young men to "become a savage."

Yes, Chrisitan men sometimes have to commit violence to do what is right, but the church was not ever instructed to become, primarily, about violence or even "justice."

More than any other people we were called by Christ to be long suffering.

Now, as concerning our country we have certainly done that, and times might require violence.

But the idea of mainstreaming the church as some earthly thing, acting against earthlym evil verges on unscriptural, as our battle is not against flesh and blood.

We are going to have to fundamentally disagree on what the definition of “meek” is. The new definition is accepting and weak. The definition that I understand is one that is humble and submits to God, and being soft and weak has nothing to do with it. Weakness and acceptance of evil deeds perpetrated by evil people are not virtues. Your claim that I am promoting “savagery” to the young men of the Church is a pure straw man argument, I proposed no such thing. There is nothing savage about a man defending his family, his church, and his community from the darkness of evil savagery, praying for the souls of his enemies even as he does what is distastefully necessary. Christianity is not a suicide pact; take your effeminate vision of Christianity and begone.
